NexGen Networks, a Global Digital Infrastructure company and the leading global provider of ultra high-speed fiber-optic services with a distinctive customer service approach, announced the expansion of a new Point of Presence “PoP” in Arizona’s Maricopa County. This expansion represents a continued, concerted effort to expand and improve NexGen’s infrastructure in the West Coast region and around the world.

Tempe is a city just east of Phoenix --  the home to dozens of Fortune 500 companies, including those specializing in new industries such as clean technology and personalized medicine. A driving demand for connectivity are both Arizona’s ranking as a leader in data center investment and the technology focus of the state's major industries, which include aerospace, electronics and semiconductor manufacturing.  This expansion will provide direct fiber connectivity to hundreds of buildings in the Phoenix metropolitan area.  “We are committed to support the customers’ demand for diverse, high-capacity fiber connectivity to enable their growth and ability to innovate. NexGen’s unmatched network provides customers in the market with the connectivity that takes them anywhere they need to be in the most convenient, cost-effective and safe way possible”, says Edward Lawson, SVP of Business Development at NexGen Networks.
